Sarasota real estate on Laurel Oaks Golf and Country Club

The biggest attraction to Sarasota real estate on Laurel Oaks is undoubtedly the two very good golf courses which wind their way through over 800 acres of this pristine Sarasota property. Approximately 400 Sarasota homes surround the two golf courses and a good proportion enjoy oversized lots with great views of the beautifully manicured greens and fairways.

Homes in Laurel Oaks vary in size from just under 3000 square feet to huge estate homes over double that size but the vast majority are in the range of 3000-4000 square feet. Owners of Laurel Oak homes do not have to take up membership of the Golf and Country Club but for those who do the Club offers much more than two high quality golf courses. Tennis enthusiasts have twelve Har Tru courts with leagues and competitions organized by the professional staff who also offer coaching for both beginners and experienced players. A resort pool is available to all and the 45000 square feet clubhouse offers both fine and casual dining. In addition to the amenities available at Laurel Oaks, club members enjoy reciprocal privileges at the very fashionable Bird Key Yacht Club.

Golfers here enjoy quality golf on two very fine courses, aptly named the East and the West. Each course provides a true test of golf, both were originally designed by Gary Player but the West course has recently undergone major design changes and re-construction under the skillful eye of Rees Jones to become widely regarded as the Signature course of Laurel Oak Golf and Country Club. The practice facilities mirror the courses and those who can afford the time to take full advantage of the amenities on hand should soon see a major improvement in their scores.

No mention of Laurel Oak would be complete without reference to the deer which roam the golf courses and nature preserves and waiting to play your next shot whilst these most elegant of creatures clear the fairway only adds to the enjoyment of the moment.

Situated a few miles East of Interstate 75 Laurel Oaks Golf and Country Club has shopping amenities close at hand and the world famous beaches of Siesta key are only a thirty minute car ride away. The cultural centers of Sarasota and Venice with museums, opera, ballet, theatres plus a wonderful array of restaurants are also within easy striking distance of your home on Laurel Oak.
